Oklahoma Sooners Football Tickets

Last year’s 8-5 final record snapped a streak of four consecutive seasons with at least 10 wins for the Sooners. Head coach Bob Stoops was forced to make changes. The Sooners, led by the new play caller Lincoln Riley, will feature more of a spread attack on offense. As things stand today, none of the four quarterbacks enrolled at OU did enough to grab the starting job in the spring. Texas Tech transfer Baker Mayfield and returning starter Trevor Knight look to have a leg up though. The Sooners offense will still feature running back Samaje Perine. Perine was outstanding as a freshman, rushing for 427 yards in a game versus Kansas and 1700 yards on the season. Wide receiver Sterling Shepard will provide an additional option on offense for the Sooners.
The decision by Jordan Phillips, a defensive tackle, to leave early for the NFL leaves the Oklahoma defense in need of others to step in. Attention turns to All Big 12 first team selection Eric Striker. Striker will take over as the anchor of the defense at the linebacker position. As the season approaches be sure to keep in an eye on who emerges as the starting QB. Will Oklahoma get back on track or will it be back to back seasons with less than 10 wins.
